MiG-21 UM (1986)

The Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21UM is one of the most recognizable two-seat jet trainers of the Cold War era — a supersonic, delta-wing aircraft created to prepare pilots for one of the most widely used fighter platforms in aviation history. We are now presenting the MiG-21UM for sale located in Hungary, more precisely in the city of Szeged. This is the only fighter jet in Hungary at the moment.

Unlike a basic training aircraft, the Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21UM was built around the experience of high-speed military jet operations in the Soviet Union in 1986 and was introduced into service with the Hungarian Air Force that same year. With tandem seating, slim fuselage, sharply swept delta wing, nose intake, and afterburning turbojet performance. It is a training aircraft with the soul, sound, and silhouette of a frontline interceptor. Quite a few of today's Gripen pilots have even flown this aircraft. It is quite rare in the world for a fighter aircraft that has been taken out of service to be appreciated and stored in a dignified manner.

For buyers searching for a MiG-21UM for sale, classic military jet, fighter jet, two-seat supersonic trainer, Cold War aircraft, delta-wing jet, collector warbird jet, or museum-grade Soviet aircraft, the Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-21UM offers extraordinary historical and visual appeal.
